Answering a Call
When a call is ringing, the display will show the calling number (if
available) and the called number.
Lift the handset or press the
SPKR key to answer the ringing
call shown in the display.
To answer a different ringing call, press the ringing Call
Appearance key before going off-hook.
Call Preference
If the Call Preference option (page 36) is set to Ringing, your telephone
will automatically answer the ringing call shown in the display when you
lift the handset or press the
SPKR key.
Ringing Control
The Ringing Control option (page 35) determines how calls ring at your
telephone. Individual call appearances can be set to always ring, never
ring, or ring after a delay.
Bridging a Shared Call Appearance
You can bridge (connect to) an active call on a call appearance that is
shared with other terminals, unless call privacy is enabled at the
network.
Lift the handset or press the
SPKR key.
Press the busy (red) Call Appearance key for the call you
want to bridge.
The call duration timer begins when you are connected to the
call.
To disconnect from the call, replace the handset or press the
SPKR key. The other parties will remain connected.
